When will I be caught?

Those tags are really small on a bike. I bet they can't even see 'em.

Plus, don't they start using the colors over again on the little stickers? I bet they have come back around again.

And those windy mountain roads require too much attention for the cops to be squinting at your tags.

I say never.

A guy I worked with years ago made it five years on expired tags. I honestly don't think he'd have been caught if he wasn't using an obsolete plate style. oh yeah, and he was drunk enough to sideswipe a parked cop. i think he'd have been fine otherwise.

I figure with the big upsurge in moth-balled bikes getting back in service a crack down on expired registrations is coming. But odds are you can slip by the rest of the season.
